Features
Read full description

From drilling holes in hardwood logs and adding shiitake spawn to harvesting and selling your crop, Shiitake Log Farming is a cultivation and management simulator where you care for inoculated logs through the seasons. Buy hardwood logs and shiitake spawn, inoculate the logs, and guide them through the initial and main incubation stages. During summer, water and rotate your logs, control pests, and manage your log yard. When fruiting season arrives, soak the logs to start fruiting. After harvest, watch quality and freshness as you choose when and how to sell, building your total assets. Features: - A guided tutorial covering each step from inoculation to harvest and sales - Cultivation management shaped by the seasons, dryness, pests, and log condition - Sales and management decisions based on shiitake quality, yield, and freshness - Achievements and Game Center leaderboards for total assets - Automatic on-device saving with no account or sign-in required - Play for three years, then optionally watch a rewarded ad to extend the game one year at a time, up to a maximum of ten years This app is a simulator for learning and entertainment. In-game dates, prices, yields, and fruiting probabilities are simplified estimates and do not guarantee real cultivation results or income. For real-world cultivation, follow guidance for your local climate, the cultivar you use, and your shiitake spawn supplier’s instructions.
